  <h3>Proxy entries</h3>
  <p>When using <strong>Manual</strong> proxy provider there are three predefined schemas to set settings for: HTTP,
  HTTPS and SOCKS <a href="#SOCKS">[1]</a>. Configuration for each schema is displayed in the <strong>Proxy
  entries</strong> table. To edit settings for a particular schema double-click the entry or select the entry and click
  <strong>Edit...</strong> button. If <strong>Port</strong> field is left blank default port number will be used.
  Following table lists default port numbers for each of the predefined schemas.</p>
